Part of the Heisman trophy Wikipedia


Wikipedia? Seriously?

From the Heisman website: "The Heisman Memorial Trophy annually recognizes the outstanding college football player whose performance best exhibits the pursuit of excellence with integrity. The winners of the trophy epitomize great ability combined with diligence, perseverance, and hard work. The Heisman Trophy Trust’s mission is to ensure the continuation and integrity of this award."

No, it does not explicitly say that it's an award based on 1 season. But it also does not explicitly say that it's not based on a single season.

Fact: The Heisman trust can award the trophy to just about anyone for just about any reason they choose.

Historically it may have been more of a "career achievement" award, but that has clearly not been the case for the last 15 years or so.

The mission statement also pretty explicitly states that it's not a stat based award, but we know that to be untrue.

Extrapolating his stats to 13 games, he finishes with 4100 passing yards and 47 TDs.
burrow threw 49 TDs in 13 games, which is when the voting would have taken place

So more, plus all the other stuff I listed? You'd have done better to just not come back

They were 1-1 head to head

we beat Alabama at their place. They crushed us at our place.

If tua stays healthy, we are undefeated and they have one loss. We probably face them in the playoffs. We have no clue what what would have happened in a rematch.

He’d have a far better case had he not missed games and beaten ND twice, plus the better stats would helps.

Devonta was incredible this year though, no question, and well deserving

its pretty incredible that he will leave college without winning the Heisman


Why is this getting downvoted?

It does seem a little weird given how high profile he’s been for 3 years. Not saying he should have gotten one, but it’s weird.

Good news for us Jag fans. Don't care about Heisman or NC.
